blackholedson[Hello hello! This morning is looking to be a chilly one, if the view of New Bark Town over this particular feed is any indication; the ground is covered in a crisp blanket of white, the scenery is undisturbed, and the...uh, well, the feed is suddenly winging upward to shoot you a lovely and vaguely motion-sickness-inducing view of the sky. There's a soft, childish noise of fascination with it before the view shifts again - when it finally focuses on something that isn't the trees or the passing clouds, its camera appears to have settled on a young boy. He looks to be around the age of ten, with messy black hair and dark eyes that seem to be glittering with a violet tint to them.
...he also looks like he's freezing, because what on earth is being dressed properly for this weather. Seems he didn't get the memo that hey, it's cold outside, a coat is probably a good idea.
However! He's smiling despite the cold, offering the brightest 8D expression that a young boy can give through that much shivering.]
Ah, so is this how this works? Um...hello! My name is Selim Bradley, and it seems that I'm...well, a bit lost...
[His gaze shifts a bit, suddenly downcast, and he frowns, thinking.]
I woke up in a strange house, you see, with a woman claiming to be my mother - but I'd never seen her before in my life! My real mother is probably worried sick; she and Father warned me that this might happen one day. My father is a very important person; there was always the fear that I would be kidnapped in the night. So it's really urgent that I get back to them right away!
I'm sure my father would be willing to offer you some sort of reward for helping sort this out - if anyone can tell me how to get in contact with Fuhrer King Bradley, I need to know right away.
Tha-
[He jumps suddenly and stops short, having been interrupted by a godawful screech from somewhere behind him; a Misdreavus is visible behind him when he turns his body to look at it. When he returns to the device, his expression is...more than a little sheepish.]
Thank you for listening, and if anyone knows where I can, um, return this pet that was given to me - wait, is that rude? Because I don't mean to be rude! I just...don't...really want it, and that strange man in town refuses to take it back, he just welcomes me to the world of, um, po-kay-mons again.
...yes, I think that's all. Thanks again!

Er... I don't believe you were kidnapped, but... it's kind of a long story!

Date: 2011-12-17 03:24 am (UTC)[Oh, someone from the military - this is good.]
Ah, hello, Mister...
[...leaning in and squinting at that screen for a moment. God, this thing is tiny...]
...Lieu...tenant Colonel, right?
[He gestures a bit at his own shoulder, indicating that he's trying to get a look at your rank insignia, there.]

Date: 2011-12-17 03:40 am (UTC)So sorry, kid, but your parents aren't around. You're not even in Amestris anymore.
[He doesn't sound particularly sorry.]
[video]
Date: 2011-12-17 03:48 am (UTC)Selim won't be bothering with the cheerful tone; that drops quickly, after a quick glance around. The only other people he's seen so far have been "Mom" and this...professor person; other than that, Misdreavus won't talk. His voice is cold, his tone nowhere near befitting of a child his age.]
Do you want to explain?
[It really isn't your place to be condescending, Envy. Older Brother here will make sure you know that.]

Date: 2011-12-17 04:26 am (UTC)[After another moment of ensuring he looks his best (it's the Fuhrer's son, of course appearance matters! He wouldn't want to be forgettable, now would he?), Archer finally turns on the 'Gear.]
I suppose you could say you were kidnapped; but this is hardly the sort of situation that you're describing.
[While Archer doesn't sound like he's talking down to Selim, he certainly does sound more pleasant than he normally does! This is his "I'm totally sane, right guys?" tone here, so just roll with it.]
It's difficult to explain, but this seems to be a different world entirely, separate from Amestris. Several of us have been brought here as well.
[video]
Date: 2011-12-17 04:49 am (UTC)...as much as one can roll with information like that, wtf.]
A different world? How...?
[Headtilt.]

You look too young to be stuck here alone and she's not sure if telling you your parents won't be worried is a good thing in this case because what child wants to hear that they won't be missed and alkfasd this is sort of terrible but D: WHAT DO I DO?! ]
Hello Selim-san! I'm Tohru Honda, I'd be happy to answer any questions for you if you'd like. [ Starting with the Pokemon, because lawl she had that same reaction when she first showed up. ]

Date: 2011-12-17 07:30 pm (UTC)Oh, hello! That'd be great, I think - everyone else just says the same thing over and over!
You weren't kidnapped too, were you?

She's going to find out if you're selim or pride!
Lusty claws is coming to tooown... ]
My, my, I certainly wouldn't expect you to show up. It's interesting to see who comes in here next. May I ask, Selim, just how is your Father's plans in central going? [ She's testing the waters first. She believes he's Selim given that Envy managed to find him first and the act dropping faster than she can fucking blink is definitely a strong indicator. ]
